Telomeres- Long stretches at the ends of the chromosome

Okazaki- A section of complementary strand

Fragments- Parts of a strand

DNA Ligase- Stitches the Okazaki fragments together

Telomerase- An enzyme that adds telomere repeat sequences to the 3’ end of DNA strands

Cancer- Arise from somatic cells. Most regain the ability to synthesize high levels of telomerase throughout the cell cycle, and thus are able to prevent further shortening of their telomeres.

Transplanted Cells- Gene therapy that removes cells, transforms them with the gene for the product that the patient has been unable to synthesize, then return them to the patient.

Cloning- taking a nucleus taken from a cell and growing a replica of the animal.

Aging- When getting older, cells do not divide as much.
